A faceplate changes only the supplied front pieces. Full housing kits can include different components; inspect front and rear views and the original product description. Parts included by another selected kit are not charged twice.
Availability is shown beside each option and checked before payment. Sold-out parts stay visible but cannot be added to a paid build. Order-in eXtremeRate parts can take up to two weeks; delivery and booking are confirmed.
Listed installed totals include both modules, fitting or soldering, calibration and testing. No extra stick labour is added. Exact model prices are on Repair prices.
$15 front access or $25 full teardown per controller, using the highest required tier once. Several compatible cosmetic parts do not each attract a fee. Customer-changeable accessories need no opening or fitting fee once the required conversion is installed.
Standard soldered matched-pair fitting is $55, including disassembly, calibration and testing. Plug-in matched pairs use $25 fitting; specialised Elite 2 GuliKit 720 fitting remains $60. Xbox One calibration-board pairs are +$5 where required, confirmed first. Other models may require a quote.
Provide both compatible modules or the exact cosmetic / electronic part with your controller. The 60-day DriftFix workmanship guarantee covers installation work only; customer-supplied parts have no DriftFix part or compatibility guarantee. Read the warranty terms before booking.
Straightforward non-stick soldered module replacement is $20 labour per part, plus parts. Diagnosis and true microsoldering are $20 per actual hour. Listed fixed repairs override the general labour charge.
Standard cleaning is $20. Liquid assessment with deep cleaning is $35 and does not guarantee recovery. Parts, further diagnosis or repairs are agreed before proceeding. USB-port repair is not offered.
